Sunflowers

Sunflowers are a perfect choice for the Florida gardener as they love the hot summers and are remarkedly easy to grow. These cheerful beauties come in a wide range of sizes and come in a variety of warm colors.

Sunflowers grow rapidly, and some species can reach a
height of eight feet or more if conditions are right. There are dwarf varieties and a wide range of colors and
flower styles to choose from.

Sunflowers will tolerate many different soil types and do
best in sunny locations. Plant your sunflower seeds
during the warm months, and keep in mind that you may
need to stake the taller varieties.
